Surgery in March 2008 helped but it took a long time to get back and there were many times when I despaired of ever running again. <br />I ran a marathon again in Nov 2008 and my 1st post-op ultra in Jan 09. seems like a distant memory now. I have to be careful but I can run againHippohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12452206365900691571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630370531945018065.post-76059087324264500272010-05-03T21:27:31.578+01:002010-05-03T21:27:31.578+01:00Rest - better late than never!?Rest - better late than never!?Realistnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630370531945018065.post-65704205316179809862010-05-02T21:23:35.171+01:002010-05-02T21:23:35.171+01:00Hi Nick, hopefully you will get some good news fro...Hi Nick, hopefully you will get some good news from this knee soon. I feel your good karma is overdue.

I hope with time the knee will be useable again. One of mine has become dodgy recently so I'll be watching your progress with interest. I actually found a lot of stretching etc recommended by my physio made the knee worse, and the other knee started to hurt too. I've cut back on stretching and I think it's helping. Be patient with it and don't give up. As a last resort try resting it for a few months with just walking to keep it loose. I hope you can keep the blog going either way, maybe as a general ultra site. Best of luck, and possibly see you at the Fellsman.<br />BernieBernie Burkenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1630370531945018065.post-25626281280671110112010-05-02T16:54:08.596+01:002010-05-02T16:54:08.596+01:00collude with pauls sentiments
